Running report in background using parameters

Hi friends,
i have an abap report that needs to run in background because it runs longer than profile timeout parameter allows to. now my question is:
if this report uses dynpro with parameters, how do i have to modify it to run in background and to pass those parameters to ? ( SUBMIT ? ).
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
DATA: seltab type table of rsparams,
      seltab_wa like line of seltab.
seltab_wa-selname = 'PNPPERNR'.
seltab_wa-sign    = 'I'.
seltab_wa-option = 'EQ'.
load each personnel number accessed from the structure into
parameters to be used in the report
loop at pnppernr.
    seltab_wa-low = pnppernr-low.
    append seltab_wa to seltab.
endloop.
SUBMIT zreport with selection-table seltab
                                via selection-screen.

Run report in background using transaction launcher

Hi ,
I need to run my zreport using transaction launcher in background....
anybody please help.
Ruchi

Hello
I agree with Andrei. Transaction Launcher is intended for front office operations with agents, not for basis tasks which must be performed by consultants with SAPGui access.
Anyway, you can launch your transaction and try to see if it works with background processing, but that is not what transaction launcher is intended for.

Running reports in background?

hi,
is it possible to run reports in background? i'm trying to find a way where in i can run / submit a process/procedure/report then go back to it after its done. this will help me allow do some other things while waiting for a report to finish.
has anyone done this?
thanks
allen

I didn't read the full article you linked to Tony, but you can just use one of the functions available in the apex_util package. (apex_util.get_print_document) - which returns the report into a blob variable.
See: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/apirefs.40/e15519/apex_util.htm#CHDDECIA

I AM USNING FORMS9I/REPORTS 9I , HOW TO RUN REPORT FROM FROM USING RUN_REPORT_OBJECT AND HOW
TO PASS PARAMETER AS WE DID IN RUN_REPORTS PLEASE HELP ME

here an example !
I hope this example you can use it
PROCEDURE pr_reporte IS
BEGIN
DECLARE
     repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status Varchar2(20);
d1 DATE;
d2 DATE;
BEGIN
     d1 := :GLOBAL.DIA_INI;
     d2 := :GLOBAL.DIA_FIN;
     repid := find_report_object('rep_lab02');
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'p_fec_uno='||to_char((add_months(last_day(d1),-1) +1),'DD/MM/YYYY')||' '||
     'p_fec_dos='||to_char(d2,'DD/MM/YYYY'));
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
     v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
     rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
     WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
          rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
     END LOOP;
     IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' then
          WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repserver','_blank');
     ELSE
          ventana('E','error reporte no encontrado','S');
     END IF;
END;
END;
The 'rep_lab02' is the name of the report that you give in the node reports
p_fec_uno and p_fec_dos they are the parameters in the report
repserver is the name of server created with rwserver

Run report on background and save to file

Hi all,
I have a development suite 10g.
I have created simple paper report with one parameter.
And I want to run this report on background from forms and get it
saved to file (PDF or RTF). The parameter for report should be passed from
my form.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Brano.

Hi,
I use the following progam unit to generate a pdf file:
if RUN_PRODUCT does not work on 10g check out the built-in RUN_REPORT_OBJECT.

Running report in background

Hi,
1. I am running a report in background, while running if system encounters any error then i want to download this error log to the presentation server, is there any function module to do this if not please suggest another possible solution to download the error log to presentation server.
2. In the above scenario when we are running a program in background, is it necessary to save the error log file on application server or we can download the error log directly to presentation server.
please suggest the possible solutions.
Regards,
Amol

Hi,
While running your program in backgorund mode genrally you can not download any data to prsentation server
there r 2 ways you can solve your problem.
1. Populate the error log and upload it to application server file Download the error log file from the appplication server by Using the command CG3Y.
2. Populate the error log and display it, doing so will create a spool when executed in backgoround now you can go to spool display it and download it to your local system.
These are the simplest ways to do it.
But if you still want your system to transfer error log to local system at the time it is executing in background you can do it by configuring RFC destination in SM59 detail documentation for RFC configuration can be found in the SDN.
Hope this helps.

Report in background using cl_gui_frontend_services= gui_download Method

Hello all,
I'm trying to run a report that uses the method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download in background mode, to export data from an internal table to a xml file.
In foreground everything works fine, but when I try to run the report in background the execution stops when the method is called. Does anyone know how to avoid this problem and run the report in background mode?
Thanks in advance,
Nuno A.

Hi,
For background processing you need to use syntax
OPEN DATASET
ld_file = p_infile.
OPEN DATASET ld_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
ELSE.
DO.
    CLEAR: wa_string, wa_uploadtxt.
    READ DATASET ld_file INTO wa_string.
    IF sy-subrc NE 0.
      EXIT.
    ELSE.
      SPLIT wa_string AT con_tab INTO wa_uploadtxt-name1
                                      wa_uploadtxt-name2
                                      wa_uploadtxt-age.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING wa_uploadtxt TO wa_upload.
      APPEND wa_upload TO it_record.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
CLOSE DATASET ld_file.

Export and save a Crystal Report in PDF using parameters

Hi @all!
Is it possible to suppress the output of an Crystal Report in a window using parameters? Instead of that I want to save the pdf in a specified folder without using the publication-function.
Fot the parameter I use these link:
[http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/businessobjectsxir2/en/en/boe_sdk/boesdk_dotnet_doc/doc/boesdk_net_doc/html/Report_Linking13.html]
Best regards,
Dirk

Hi,
this is the forum for the SAP Integration Kit. I would suggest you post your question into the Crystal Reports forum.
the answer - yes you can use OpenDocument to show the report right away as PDF.

Run Report Object and Lexical Parameters

Hi all,
I am trying to pass a value for a lexical parameter in a report. The report query is as follows:
SELECT EMP.EMPNO, EMP.ENAME,
EMP.JOB, EMP.MGR, EMP.HIREDATE, EMP.SAL, EMP.COMM, EMP.DEPTNO
FROM EMP
&Where_St
The Where_St is a lexical parameter which will hold the Where Statement the end user need it to be executed.
I build a form on the EMP table in order to let the user get benefit from the Enter Query/Execute Query functionality in forms. Like this, he/she can query the data he likes with the condtions he wish to have.
I created a button to call the report I did before from the form
The Button has the following code in the trigger
WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED
declare
rep_id report_object;
rep_status varchar2(30);
Where_Pos number(3);
Where_Statement varchar2(200);
begin
Where_Pos := InStr(:System.Last_Query, 'WHERE');
if Where_Pos > 0 then
Where_Statement := SubStr(:System.Last_Query,
Where_Pos);
end if;
rep_id := Find_Report_Object('emp_rep');
Set_Report_Object_Property(rep_id, REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE, RUNTIME);
Set_Report_Object_Property(rep_id, REPORT_COMM_MODE, ASYNCHRONOUS);
Set_Report_Object_Property(rep_id, REPORT_DESTYPE, PREVIEW);
Set_Report_Object_Property(rep_id, REPORT_OTHER, 'MAXIMIZE=YES Where_St=' | | Where_Statement);
rep_status := Run_Report_Object(rep_id);
end;
Whenever I run the report it did not show up at all. I doubt the value I am passing, so I deleted the line that pass the value for the Lexical parameter to the report. The report worked just fine.
Moreover, I passed this value using Run_Product to the reports and the report is working fine with the forms. But I would like to use Run_Report_Object to pass this value to the reports.
Any ideas??
Thanks

Running the ALV report in Background using layout variant

Hello Everyone,
I am facing a problem in downloading a text file to the Application server.
My requirement is, when the user downloads a file with the layout variant, the file should have only the columns which was selected in the variant.
Can anybody give me a optimized solution for this issue.
Regards,
Vasanth

Hi,
How are you downloading the file to the app server, using which internal table? How are you building that internal table?
What you need to do is to build a internal table dynamically with only those columns that are a part of the layout variant. Then move the data from the original internal table into this and then download the dynamica internal table to the app server.

Ravi

Dump while running report in background

Hi Experts,
I have created one report to create the conditions record by using BDC. The program is uploading the data from file which is located at local server and at selection screen, path of file is defined.
When i run the report in foreground it works fine, first it uploaded that data and then created BDC and record saved successfully. But if i run the program in background and check the job status through SM37 , job get canceled due to the dump. The dump message is "Exception condition "NO_BATCH" raised."
The FM which i am using currently in my code to upload the data is "GUI_UPLOAD", i tried the same thing with FM "ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE" as well, but same dump is coming.
Please advice if anyone have some solution.
Thanks & Regards,
Swati

Hi,
The FM GUI_UPLOAD, wont work in the background jobs. This is the reason for the dump.
As the backround job runs at the application server, the program cannot identidy the presentation server (local system) file path.
To avoid this store and read file from application server.
Thanks & Regards,
Navneeth K.

Run report in background

I have a report that run in background.Now my aim is to save the data in excel on my desktop.
Please guide me how to do so.I have used this function module
SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT
and many more but still i'm not able to save data in excel.

You cannnot use any of these function modules in Background. There is no easy way of interacting with the presentation server in backgorund, Instead you could do background processing and store the file in app server and then transfer it from app server to presentation server.
This is one of the complicated way to do it:
